Prometheus is an open-source systems monitoring and alerting toolkit mainly used for metrics monitoring, event monitoring, alert management. Prometheus has changed the way of monitoring systems and that is why it has become the Top-Level project of Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF). Prometheus use multiple modes used for graphing and dashboarding support.

Prometheus's main features are:

1. A multi-dimensional data model with time series data identified by metric name and key/value pairs.
2. PromQL, a flexible query language to leverage this dimensionality.
3. No reliance on distributed storage; single server nodes are autonomous.
4. Time series collection happens via a pull model over HTTP.
